(Reuters) - American defender Matt Besler scored his first international goal on Friday just hours after learning his wife had gone into labor two weeks early and he had become a father. Besler, who is in the Caribbean with the U.S. team for their World Cup qualifier against St Vincent and the Grenadines, said he was thrilled at the news his wife had given birth to a daughter early on Friday. It's hard to explain how I was feeling this morning," Besler told reporters after scoring in the first half in a 6-0 rout over the home team.
